SSL Secure Server Information

All TCPIPHost customers on our Hosting Plans have access to an SSL Secure Server. Your site will need to purchase a digital certificate from Thawte, Verisign, or Equifax. Once the Security Certificate is purchased, fill out the request SSL Security form in our online support section and a technician will get you setup. It normally takes between 1-4 days to set a website up with SSL.

Any page that you refer to using https://www.domain.com/page.html (notice the 's' after the usual 'http') will come up securely. It is strongly advised that you use this only for pages that utilize order forms, since these pages always load more slowly than non-secure pages. However, all information sent on that page will be sent through 128-bit SSL Encryption.
